1 Crystal Developments for the Homogeneous Hadron Calorimeter Detector Concept Ren-yuan Zhu California Institute of Technology March 21, Linear Colliders Workshop of the Americas, Eugene

2 Homogeneous Hadron Calorimeter A Fermilab team (A. Para et al.) proposed a total absorption homogeneous HCAL detector concept to achieve good jet mass resolution by measuring both Cherenkov and Scintillation light. It also eliminates the dead materials between classical ECAL and HCAL. This longitudinal segmented crystal HCAL is possible because of the latest development in large area compact readout devices. Requirements for the materials to be used for HHCAL: Short nuclear interaction length: ~ 20 cm. Good UV transmittance: UV cut-off < 350 nm. Some scintillation light, not necessary bright and fast. Cost-effective material: < $2/cc for 100 m 3! Radiation hardness is not crucial at the ILC/CLIC. A series of workshops on material development for HHCAL: 1 st 2/19/2008 at SIC, Shanghai, 2 nd 5/9/2010 at IHEP, Beijing, 3 rd 10/30/2010 at Knoxville, will go with SCINT, CALOR & IEEE NSS. 2

8 Crystal for Homogeneous HCAL Crystals of high density, good UV transmittance and some scintillation light, not necessary bright and fast, are required. The volume needed is 70 to 100 m 3 : cost-effective material. Following 2/19/08 workshop at SICCAS, 5 x 5 x 5 cm samples evaluated. 8

9 Cherenkov Needs UV Transparency Cherenkov figure of merit Using UG11 optical filter Cherenkov light can be effectively selected with negligible contamination from scintillation 9

10 Scintillation Selected with Filters UG11/GG400 optical filter effectively selects Cherenkov/scintillation light 10

11 No Discrimination in Front Edge Consistent timing and rise time for all Cherenkov and scintillation light pulses observed. S S S C C C 11

12 Ratio of Cherenkov/Scintillation 1.6% for BGO and 22% for PWO with UG11/GG400 filter and R2059 PMT, which is configuration dependent. BGO 12

13 PbF 2 Crystal Samples A total of 116 samples with various rare earth doping were grown by vertical Bridgman method at SIC and Scintibow. SIC samples: grown in platinum crucible, 1.5 X 0 (14 mm) cube. Scintibow samples: grown in graphite crucible, Φ 22 x 15 mm. Photo: SIC sample/scintibow sample. 13

14 Scintillation was Observed in PbF 2 :Gd Scintillation of PbF 2 (Gd) PbF 2 (Gd) Response to MIP of 1 GeV/c Fast Scintillation of 6.5 p.e./mev with decay time of less than 10 ns C. Woody et al., IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci. 43 (1996)

15 Luminescence Observed in PbF 2 Consistent Photo- and X-luminescence observed in doped PbF 2 samples grown by Prof. Dingzhong Shen of SIC/Scintibow. 15

16 Rare Earth Doped PbF 2 Multi-ms decay time observed, indicating f-f transitions of these rare earth elements which is too slow to be useful. 16

17 Anode Current Anode current measured for doped PbF2 samples is at the same level as undoped crystals, indicating weak light. 17

18 137 Cs Pulse Height Spectra So far, no detectable scintillation was found R.H. Mao et al., IEEE TNS Vol 57 No 6 (2010)

19 PbClF Crystals Guohao Ren of SIC: Talk at the 2 nd Workshop for HHCAL D= 7.11g/cm 3 Melting point =608 C Space group=p/4nmm a=4.10å;c= 7.22Å Crystal structure of PbClF PbClF Crystal samples grown at SICCAS 19

21 X-Luminescence & Transmittance Consistent X-luminescence peaked at 420 nm observed in all PbFCl samples. Transmittance cut-off at 300 nm. 21

22 137 Cs Spectrum & Decay Kinetics Weak scintillation light with decay time of 24 ns observed in all PbFCl samples. Preliminary 22

23 BSO Crystals Hu Yuan of SIC: Talk at the 2 nd Workshop for HHCAL Nov. 2008: Φ2.5 x 12 cm Feb Φ2 x 17 cm May 2009 Oct. 2009: 2 x 18 cm Φ5.5 x 12 cm 23

24 BSO Samples BSO-1 BSO-2 BSO-3 BSO-4 BSO-5 BSO has two phases 24

25 Excitation, Emission & Transmittance Improvement of UV absorption observed. The cut-off of transmission spectra moved toward 300 nm. Absorption visible between 350 and 600 nm. 25

26 137 Cs Spectrum & Decay Kinetics Light output is about 15% of BGO, should be improved to 20% after the visible absorption removed. Decay time constant is ~100 ns. 26

27 Summary The HHCAL is an interesting detector concept providing a unprecedented combination of e/ɣ and jet mass resolutions. The crucial issue is to develop high quality materials of low cost: < $2/cc. Among all crystals, PbF 2, PbClF and BSO seem the best candidates to meet the cost goal. While consistent photo and x- luminescence was found in Er, Eu, Gd, Ho, Pr, Sm and Tb doped PbF 2 samples, their decay time is at ms scale as expected from the f-f transition of the rare earth elements. The scope of this R&D is now expanded to a broad range other of materials, including scintillating glasses and ceramics etc. See presentations at the 2 nd and 3 rd HHCAL Workshops. 27
